Often times, concept music is a genre that just seems to do nothing but turn me off. For the most part, I find music that tells fictional stories to be insufferable, as they seem to always fall into the same boring tones regardless of who is performing it. This …

Digging Up Bones is one of the songs that Randy Travis does that really hits home with me. You see, to me the song is about a love that has ended but that I was not ready to end. When I was sixteen I met a man that was …

Before any of you complains about her being unknown, let me tell you first, that AURORA is probably going to be the next “Lorde”. I am pretty sure 90% of the world’s population have heard Lorde’s humongous hit “Royals” at least once!
